Daily Current Affairs Article 27th December 2020: India’s urban mass rapid transit marked a milestone on December 28, 2020 after Prime Minister Narendra Modi flagged off the country’s first ‘driverless’ metro in Delhi.
The first ‘driverless’ train will roll out on the 38-km Line 8 or Magenta Line of the Delhi Metro, which has a 390-km-long network spread across the national capital and adjoining cities such as Noida, Gurugram, Faridabad, Ghaziabad and Bahadurgarh.

The Centre has also notified changes in the Metro Railways General Rules, 2020 as the previous norms did not allow driverless services.
The trials of DMRC's new 'driverless trains' were started in December 2017, along the 20-km stretch on Pink Line.
The trials were to test the automation of the new metro trains, that were equipped with Unattended Train Operations (UTO) and CBTC (Communication Based Train Control) signalling systems.
